You know, I'm supposed to be writing an essay about something similar right now.

I think communism gets a very bad press. The Soviet Union didn't turn out how Marx and Lenin intended (Marx said late in his life "whatever I am, I am not a Marxist.") and it was built upon noble intentions.

I look forward to the second part.

The essay is fairly decent, but your summary sucks. Twas only a stroke of luck on your part that I even read this (clicked on the wrong one). The summary can be just as important as the essay-it's your hook for the reader. Work on your hook; the essay deserves a good one.
